Scottish Distribution
Northern Isles
Besides operating our own container ship, the MV Daroja, twice per week
from Aberdeen to Orkney and Shetland (290 x 20 containers capacity), we
also operate complimentary daily express trailer groupage and full load
services from Glasgow, Inverness and Aberdeen to our own depots in
Kirkwall (Orkney) and Lerwick (Shetland) utilising the daily ro-ro
passenger ferry routes provided by "Northlink Ferries Ltd". All types
of goods can be shipped, including temperature-controlled foodstuffs
and hazardous goods to heavy lift and out-of-gauge project cargoes.
This flexibility enables all types of goods to be shipped to and from
these remote isles to meet transit time requirements and gives clients
the advantage of various pricing options. Cargo moving to/from the
Northern Isles can be collected/delivered anywhere in the UK and Europe.
Western Isles
We can also offer daily trailer groupage and full load freight services
from Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness throughout the Western Isles in
conjunction with our Island based partners. Cargo moving to/from the
Western Isles can be collected/delivered anywhere in the UK and Europe.
Scottish Haulage
Being one of the most progressive and successful transport &
distribution companies operating throughout Scotland, we have an
extensive fleet of modern equipment available at our disposal,
including brand new reefer trailers, flats and curtain-siders (some
with double decks), in excess of 350 x 20' ISO containers, tail-lift
distribution rigid vehicles, Hi-Ab flat trucks and a fleet of parcel
delivery vans. Daily trunk services from/to the Scottish Central Belt
to Aberdeen and Inverness are provided for all types of cargo.
Scotland to Scotland Radial Distribution/"One Stop Shop"
From our 15,500 sq ft Glasgow depot (ideally located to J5 of the M74),
we provide the complete "one stop shop" facility for prompt delivery
throughout the whole of Scotland. From the Borders to the Highlands
& Islands, from Glasgow locally to Edinburgh, one call does it all.
We'll even handle your book-in's and delivery by tail-lift is available
from all our strategically located depots. Out-of-hours and second man
deliveries can be arranged with prior notice.
UK Haulage & Distribution
Full & Part Trailer Loads
Whether you have a requirement from England-Scotland or
Scotland-England, we can handle your part and full trailer loads. Our
UK haulage division is based at our Glasgow depot and provides coverage
throughout the UK. Manned by experienced transport operators who have
considerable knowledge of the UK haulage market, we can provide "one
way" or "round trip" solutions as well as "backhaul" facilities both
North and South for most types of cargo.
Pallet Distribution
As a totally neutral service provider, operating in long-term
partnership with two of the UK's most progressive pallet networks, we
have nationwide facilities on hand to move your pallets throughout the
UK and continental Europe. A full range of quality services is
available for general cargo such as economy, next day, timed delivery,
tail-lift & book-in's.
Warehousing
From our own network of five strategically located depots throughout
Scotland (Glasgow, Aberdeen, Inverness, Kirkwall & Lerwick), we
have modern facilities to cross-dock freight quickly, provide short or
long-term storage, break-bulk and pick and pack services.
P.O.D. Control
We recognised many years ago that returning POD's was as important as
being able to deliver the goods. Many of our clients would argue that
the POD is in reality more important, as without it they cannot be
paid. With this in mind, we implemented the innovative guarantee of "No
POD-No Carriage Charge". If we fail to return a POD, we won't charge
you a single penny for the transaction. Furthermore, we have dedicated
staff at all of our depots to return your POD's to your specific
requirements in a timely and efficient manner.
Stevedoring
Employing a considerable pool of experienced personnel, we can react at
short notice and provide the full range of stevedoring facilities 24/7
every day of the year from our Aberdeen, Kirkwall and Lerwick depots. Extensive
mechanical handling equipment and associated facilities are available
to meet your needs. Please contact Phil Bremner or Alex Roberts at our
Aberdeen Head Office on 01224 211506 for more information and rates.
